   Simple really...

   Is there a way to use <?php echo $post->post_content; ?> so that it mimics <?php the_content(); ?> in the way it retains all the WYSIWYG formatting information (specifically, <p> tags)?

   Thanks

   Found it..

   <?php echo apply_filters('the_content', $post->post_content); ?>

   Sorry for the bump!

   I'm using the post_content for my pages because I'm working with columns:
   

   <?php
   $page_columns = explode ("[--column--]", $post->post_content);
   print $page_columns[0];
   print '<div class="column first">';
   print $page_columns[1];
   print '</div>';
   print'<div class="column second">';
   print $page_columns[2];
   print '</div>';
   ?>

   But... when I'm using this, there will be no paragraph tags.
   How do I use the pasted code above in combination with the <?php echo apply_filters('the_content', $post->post_content); ?>?

   (sorry for my bad English)

   print '</div>';
   ?>

   Worked for me.
